Ezekiel 24
1 Ní ọdún kẹsànán, oṣù kẹwàá, ọjọ́ kẹwàá, ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, saying,
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, kọ ọjọ́ náà sílẹ̀, ọjọ́ náà gan an, nítorí ọba Babeli náà ti da ojú ti Jerusalẹmu ní ọjọ́ yìí gan an.
'Son of man, write for thee the name of the day — this self-same day leaned hath the king of Babylon toward Jerusalem in this self-same day —
3 Sì pa òwe yìí fún ilé ọlọ́tẹ̀ náà, sọ fún wọn pé: ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Gbé ìkòkò ìdáná náà ka iná, gbé e ka iná kí o sì da omi sí i nínú.
and use unto the rebellious house a simile, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: To set on the pot, to set [it] on, and also to pour into it water,
4 Kó àwọn ègé ẹran tí a gé náà sínú rẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn ègé ẹran tí ó tóbi, itan àti apá. Kó àwọn egungun tí ó dára jù sínú rẹ̀,
To gather its pieces unto it, every good piece, Thigh and shoulder, the choice of the bones to fill in.
5 mú àwọn tí ó jọjú nínú agbo ẹran. Kó àwọn egungun sí abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀; sì jẹ́ kí ó hó dáradára sì jẹ́ kí àwọn egungun náà bọ̀ nínú rẹ̀.
The choice of the flock to take, And also to pile of the bones under it, Boil it thoroughly, yea, cook its bones in its midst.
6 Nítorí báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Ègbé ni fún ìlú ẹlẹ́jẹ̀ náà, fún ìkòkò náà tí èérí rẹ̀ wà nínú rẹ̀, tí èérí kò dà kúrò lójú rẹ̀! Mú ẹran náà jáde ní ekìrí ekìrí má ṣe ṣà wọ́n mú.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe [to] the city of blood, A pot whose scum [is] in it, And its scum hath not come out of it, By piece of it, by piece of it bring it out, Not fallen on it hath a lot.
7 “‘Nítorí ẹ̀jẹ̀ tí ó ta sílẹ̀ wà ní àárín rẹ̀; à á sí orí àpáta kan lásán kò dà á sí orí ilẹ̀, níbi ti erùpẹ̀ yóò ti bò ó.
For her blood in her midst hath been, On a clear place of a rock she hath set it, She hath not poured it on the earth, To cover it over with dust.
8 Láti bá à le jẹ́ kí ìbínú kí ó dé láti gbẹ̀san mo da ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sí orí àpáta kan lásán, kí o ma bà á wà ni bíbò.
To cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a clear place of a rock — not to be covered.
9 Nítorí náà báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Ègbé ni fún ìlú ẹlẹ́jẹ̀ náà! Èmi pàápàá yóò jẹ́ kí òkìtì iná náà tóbi.
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe [to] the city of blood, yea, I — I make great the pile.
10 Nítorí náà kó igi náà jọ sí i, kí o sì fi iná sí i. Ṣe ẹran náà dáradára, fi tùràrí dùn ún; kí o sì jẹ́ kí egungun náà jóná.
Make abundant the wood, Kindle the fire, consume the flesh, And make the compound, And let the bones be burnt.
11 Lẹ́yìn náà gbé òfìfo ìkòkò náà lórí ẹyin iná kí idẹ rẹ̀ lè gbóná, kí ó lè pọ́n àti ki ìfófó rẹ̀ le di yíyọ́ nínú rẹ̀ kí èérí rẹ̀ le jó dànù.
And cause it to stand on its coals empty, So that its brass is hot and burning, Melted hath been in its midst its uncleanness, Consumed is its scum.
12 Ó ti ba gbogbo akitiyan jẹ: èérí rẹ̀ kò sì jáde kúrò lára rẹ̀, èérí náà gan an yóò wà nínú iná.
[With] sorrows she hath wearied herself, And the abundance of her scum goeth not out of her, In the fire [is] her scum.
13 “‘Nísinsin yìí èérí rẹ̀ ni ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ wà. Nítorí mo gbìyànjú láti wẹ̀ ọ́ mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò sì mọ́ kúrò nínú ìwà ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ, a kì yóò sì tún wẹ̀ ọ mọ́ kúrò nínú èérí rẹ, títí èmi yóò fi jẹ́ kí ìbínú mi balẹ̀ sórí rẹ̀.
In thine uncleanness [is] wickedness, Because I have cleansed thee, And thou hast not been cleansed, From thine uncleanness thou art not cleansed again, Till I have caused My fury to rest on thee.
14 “‘Èmi Olúwa ni ó sọ ọ́, yóò sì ṣe, èmi yóò sì ṣe é. Èmi kì yóò padà sẹ́yìn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò dá sí i, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò yí ọkàn mi padà; gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀nà rẹ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí iṣẹ́ rẹ, ni wọn yóò dá ọ lẹ́jọ́, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”
I, Jehovah, hath spoken, It hath come, and I have done [it], I do not free, nor do I spare, nor do I repent, According to thy ways, and according to thine acts, they have judged thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
15 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá pé:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
16 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, kíyèsi i, mo mú ìfẹ́ ojú rẹ kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, nípa lílù kan. Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ gbààwẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ sọkún, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni omijé ojú rẹ kò gbọdọ̀ kán sílẹ̀.
'Son of man, lo, I am taking from thee the desire of thine eyes by a stroke, and thou dost not mourn, nor weep, nor let thy tear come.
17 Má ṣe sọkún, má ṣe gbààwẹ̀ fún òkú. Wé ọ̀já sí orí rẹ, sì bọ bàtà sí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ, má ṣe bo ètè ìsàlẹ̀ rẹ, ma ṣe jẹ oúnjẹ tí àwọn tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ ń jẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣà.”
Cease to groan, [for] the dead thou dost make no mourning, thy bonnet bind on thee, and thy shoes thou dost put on thy feet, and thou dost not cover over the upper lip, and bread of men thou dost not eat.'
18 Báyìí ni mo sọ̀rọ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn ní òwúrọ̀, ní àṣálẹ́ ìyàwó mi sì kú. Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, mo ṣe bí a ti pàṣẹ fún mi.
And I speak unto the people in the morning, and my wife dieth in the evening, and I do in the morning as I have been commanded.
19 Lẹ́yìn náà àwọn ènìyàn bi mí léèrè pé, “Ṣe o kò ni sọ fún wa ohun ti nǹkan wọ̀nyí ní láti ṣe pẹ̀lú wa?”
And the people say unto me, 'Dost thou not declare to us what these [are] to us, that thou art doing?'
20 Mo sọ báyìí fún wọn pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
And I say unto them, 'A word of Jehovah hath been unto me, saying:
21 Sọ fún ilé Israẹli, ‘Báyìí ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Kíyèsi i, èmi yóò sọ ibi mímọ́ mi di ibi àìmọ́ tayọ agbára yín, ìfẹ́ ojú yín, ìkáàánú yín, àti ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin tí ẹ̀yin fi sílẹ̀ sẹ́yìn yóò ṣubú nípa idà.
Say to the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am polluting My sanctuary, The excellency of your strength, The desire of your eyes, and the pitied of your soul, And your sons and your daughters whom ye have left, by sword they do fall.
22 Ẹyin yóò sì ṣe bí mo ti ṣe. Ẹ̀yin kì yóò bo ìsàlẹ̀ ojú yín tàbí jẹ oúnjẹ ti àwọn tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ ń jẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣà.
And ye have done as I have done, On the upper lip ye are not covered, And bread of men ye do not eat.
23 Ẹ̀yin yóò fi àwọn ọ̀já wé àwọn orí yín àti àwọn bàtà ni ẹsẹ̀ yín, ẹ̀yin kì yóò ṣọ̀fọ̀ tàbí sọkún, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin yóò ṣòfò dànù nítorí àwọn àìṣedéédéé yín, ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa kérora láàrín ara yín.
And your bonnets [are] on your heads, And your shoes [are] on your feet, Ye do not mourn nor do ye weep, And ye have wasted away for your iniquities, And ye have howled one unto another.
24 Esekiẹli yóò jẹ àmì fún un yín; ẹ̀yin yóò sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí òun ti ṣe. Nígbà tí èyí bá ṣẹlẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa Olódùmarè.’
And Ezekiel hath been to you for a type, According to all that he hath done ye do; In its coming in — ye have known that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
25 “Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú ìwọ, Ọmọ ènìyàn, kì yóò ha jẹ́ pé, ní ọjọ́ náà, nígbà ti mo bá gba agbára wọn, ayọ̀ wọn àti ògo wọn, ìfẹ́ ojú wọn, ohun tí wọn gbé ọkàn wọn lé, àti àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin wọn pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ obìnrin wọn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn,
And thou, son of man, Is it not in the day of My taking from them their strength, The joy of their beauty, the desire of their eyes, And the song of their soul, Their sons and their daughters?
26 ní ọjọ́ náà ẹni tí ó bá sálà yóò tọ̀ ọ́ wá láti sọ ìròyìn náà fún ọ.
In that day come doth the escaped one to thee. To cause the ears to hear.
27 Ní ọjọ́ náà ẹnu rẹ yóò sì ṣí; ìwọ yóò sọ̀rọ̀, ìwọ kì yóò sì yadi mọ́. Báyìí ìwọ yóò jẹ́ àmì fún wọn; wọn yóò sì mọ̀ pé èmi ní Olúwa.”
In that day opened is thy mouth with the escaped, And thou speakest, and art not silent any more, And thou hast been to them for a type. And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.'
